pod2g Tweets ‘My iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1 is now untethered’ (Update)

UPDATE: pod2g has posted a couple more tweets saying that people are telling him not to release the jailbreak because the iOS 5.1 tethered is good enough. But he reminds them that “there are AppleTV3, 4S, iPad2 and iPad3 users out there!” If he waits to release the untethered jailbreak until iOS 6 comes out, there’s a higher chance that the exploits will still exist, making it easier to jailbreak. pod2g had a poll on his blog recently asking what he should do. 64% said release ASAP while 33% said wait for iOS 6.

iOS jailbreaker pod2g just announced on Twitter that his iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1 is now untethered. pod2g has been working hard with some other guys in the jailbreak community on an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1. Last week he said they were ready to “set pieces of the puzzle together,” but said a release could be one or two months away, and maybe never. Unless his latest tweet is just a tease, it sounds like an untethered jailbreak for iOS may be coming soon.
